Do these look okay?

The pictures were taken with my cell phone (camera battery is dead and my charger is missing...I think I might have left it at my grandparents house over Christmas, but who knows) so they aren't the greatest...sorry.

First, DD#3. Her shoulders were RIGHT at the harness slots, so I moved them up and now it just looks off to me. Is it just me, or is the headrest too high? Its set at the position even with the harness slots. If I move it down, the headrest goes over the harness.

FTR, her chest clip isn't usually that high...its even with her armpits. She was just in a super goofy mood (and we weren't going anywhere).

Then, I moved DD#4 to the MR DD#5 was in and put DD#5 in the scenera because DD#4 REALLY wanted to be rear facing and I've temporarily given up on my dream of getting a radian (don't know that I could get a good install in my truck anyway, but I want to try!). Are they too upright? The MR is more upright than it was in the center (where DD#5 was) but DD#4 fell asleep in it today and was fine...no head slump or anything. I'm more worried about the angle of the scenera anyway. Is it ok?

I can't believe the difference in the amount of leg room in the two seats! DD#5 hasn't complained at all though. I tried to get her to cross her legs because it looked more comfortable to me, but she wanted nothing to do with that and stretched them out. Oh well :)

That happens when you have to bump up the harness on the Nauti. Looks ugly for a while, but still safe.

The littles look perfect in the MR and Scenera. :D

Thanks! :) I figured the nauti was okay, but wanted to ask because it just looks weird.

Now that I have looked back at the pictures, DD#4's chest clip is too high, isn't it? I think I've preached "make sure the clip is pulled up" so much that they are putting it too high. I know it wasn't that high when I buckled her in :( I guess I'll just have to start preaching "keep the clip even with your armpits" instead :)

The clip is a little high. You could also teach them where their breasts are, and that that's where the clip needs to be. I would imagine that might be easier for a young child.

I taught my kids to put it where their "nip-nips" are. my yongest started calling them that. All my kids think it is funny.

That's a good idea! She already knows where her breasts (well "milk milks"...) are. They know they are actually called breasts, but milk milks just stuck from when I was nursing...

Just thought I'd mention (though I'm sure you know :p) to make sure you attach your tether to the seat. From the looks of the picture, it seems as if it's just hanging, not attached (on the scenera). Unless that's just the excess lack from it being attached.

Just had to mention. :)

Super cute girls!

They look good to me. And super cute. That's where my mom puts the chest clip. I've told her to make sure it's not too low so she went the other way. I tell the girls to put it on their boobies and they always get it right.

Thanks! I forgot all about attaching it! I thought about it as I was taking the seat to the truck and then it totally slipped my mind!
